British watchmaker Elliot Brown has unveiled its first mechanical timepiece.
The Tyneham continues the brand’s mission to create robust and highly durable timepieces for gentlemen, but has a Miyota 9130 automatic movement at its heart.
The 41mm case is made from solid marine grade brushed stainless steel with a scratch resistant, ultra tough case-hardened bezel with recessed 2mm anti reflective sapphire crystal.
Maintaining the Elliot Brown reputation for creating the toughest timepieces on the market has meant engineering in a dual stage 360 shock absorption system to protect the movement.
The Tyneham also has a triple-sealed crown to keep the watch water-tight.
There are five different models in the collection including a limited edition with a sapphire caseback replacing the normal steel one so that the movement can be viewed.
The watches will sell for £795 with steel back, £845 with the sapphire display back. They are selling into retail now and are expected to go on sale to the public at the end of October.
Key features:
- Miyota 9130 movement with hack and hand-wind
- Two-stage 360 movement shock absorption system
- Tested in water at 300m
- 40h Power reserve indicator at 1h
- Case hardened, scratch proof bezel
- Triple sealed crown with parallel hobnail knurling
- Single sided screw-in strap bars for easy strap changes
